Magician’s Quest: Town of Magic Will Conjure Up A Spell On Nintendo 3DS [Update]

Back in 2008, Konami published a Nintendo DS life-simulation game titled Tongari Boushi to Mahou no 365 Nichi. A year later, the game was localized in English as Magician’s Quest: Mysterious Times in North America.

Magician’s Quest was an Animal Crossing-style life-simulation title that took place at a magic academy. It used the Nintendo DS’ internal clock for events, and you could make girlfriends and boyfriends within the game, interact with villagers, and so on.

This week’s Famitsu magazine reveals that the next Magician’s Quest game is headed to the Nintendo 3DS. It’s called Magician’s Quest: Town of Magic. Retail blog, Sinobi, brings more details of the game.

Magician’s Quest: Town of Magic will have a new protagonist and new townsfolk. Famitsu also mentions new furniture and a huge shopping mall in town. The game is currently at 70% completion.

Yeah, that’s kind of the point.
The game was okay to me, wasn’t a fan of the characters too much.

I played the localized version of the first game, and while you can definitely feel much of the game was based on Animal Crossing, but being able to learn and cast spells, have relationships with the townsfolk, and the supernatural events that happened among other things really helped mix things up. Here’s hoping they decide to bring this one stateside as well! Was cute and fun and had innovation AC has been lacking lately :)
